This company is established for the purpose of acquiring the business and connections of ex sting provincial Bank ing Establiatiments and of carrying on, generally, the opera tions of CorAntry Banking on the Joint-Stock principle. Treaties, are now pending for the purchase of some private and join'.;-stock country establishments, which will form the basis 44' a large and flourishing bank ; and, for that purpose, full t owers for the increase of capital have been taten in the Art Acles of Association. 'At is not proposed to do any banking business in London ; hat in addition to acquiring the goodwill and business con a ections of ex. sting banks, i is intended to open branches in provincial cities and towns where, owing to the increase 'of wealth and population, a satisfactory business can be esta blished. • The recent amalgamation of tw of the largest private banks in London with joint• stock establishments, blowing other combinations of a similar nature, and the continuous advance in the price of banking shares generally, afford con elusive evidence of the advantages of the principle of joint- Cork association in banking business. If the system of banking carried on by public companies is admitted to be so advantageous in London, where the pri vate establishments are generally large and wealthy, it can not be a matter of doubt that the principle is still more ap • plicable to the country, where the resources and credit of 'private firms are much more limited. The increase, also, of trade in the country genera ly has crea ed a demand for fur ther banking accommodation, while it is only in the metro polis that the requirements of the mercantile community have been adequately considered. The shares of the three Banks in London constituted for silabwr otject s are now quoted as follows, viz.: • The National Provinci a l Paid. Present Prices.£l2 .£4l The London and Cou n ty 65 The Provincial Bank cf Ireland. 4 85 03 In further illustration of he profitable character of the 'business of the forty-one Joint-P"cook Banks established dur ing the past three years, it be found on inspection of the official list that, out of thla number, the shares of alp but two are saleable at aco 't advance on their paid-up capital.

The Directors have entered into an agreement for the purchase, on, terms favourable for the Company, of the pre mises, machinery, plant, stock in trade, patent rights and goodwill of the business of Messrs. Gill and Company, Engineers and Iron-founders, of Tavistock, whose works have been successfully carried on for the last sixty years, and who have long since established a reputation for the e xcelleeece of their manufacture of steam engines and boilers, chains, hammered iron, edge tools, and every description of roireing and other machinery. The property consists of about thirteen acres of land, 'held under a long lease from the Duke of Bedford, and comprises, besides the ground devoted to the works, a com fortable mansion with plantations and grounds, a house for the manager, and cottages and gardens for the workmen, all of which aro let at remunerative rentals. There is also never-failing water-pozer maintained at the cos t o f t h e Duke of Bedford, suffi.cient' to carry on all the operations of there Company, and b,y means of which great economy and a pportionate in'aease of profit is secured.

Other very important contracts, which the board consider will alone produce a good dividend to the shareholders, have been provisionally secured, and will be completed as soon as the Company is in a position to undertake them. The Directors only consider it necessary to allude to the large profits realised by the manufacture of steel (which at the present cost of its manufacture ultimately take the place of iron in most instances), and the remunerative business of manufacturing steel ordnance, shot, and shell, for foreign dividends will Governments, be realised to satisfy the sharehold ere th a t h andsome The premises are easily accessible by canal from Ply mouth Sound, and by railway from all other parts of the kingdom, and being situated in the midst of a prosperous and constantly increasing mining district, a large amount of business with mines can be ensured.

The object of this Association is to promote and en courage the monetary, financial, and industrial undertakings of the kingdom of Italy. 2. Whilst the territorial and commercial development of Italy has been se great, and has lately been so much en larged under the influence of the constitutional system of government, and the recent liberal treaties of commerce, capital is imperatively required for the development of the vast material resources of the kingdom. ?,. There are few countries which present so extensive and profitable a field for the safe and remunerative employ ment of capital. 4. A very important operation will at once recommend itself to the attention of the directors, and one which will be within the province of the Association—the negotiation with the Italian Government for the proposed sale of the Crown lands. 5. The operations will embrace—the negotiation of Go vernment and municipal loans ; advances upon all securities affording adequate guarantees, and financial accommodation to the concessionaries of, or other parties interested in rail way and other important public works. These works are frequently undertaken by local municipalities whose en gagements are guaranteed by the isssue of obligations or debentures, secured on their revenues. These securities have always sustained their value in the monetary markets. 6. A;an evidence of the rapid advance which Italy has made in her trade and commerce, it is shown by the official reports that the declared value of the imports and exports of the kingdom now amounts to upwards of 80 millions sterling, bein g an i ncrease o f £20 , 000 , 000 b eyon d th e va l ue in 1858. 7. An association of this nature so much required, and being introduced upon a scale commensurate with the great resources of the Kingdom of Italy, will be most favourably received by the Government, as well as by the commercial community. 8. Important relations have already been established with influential banking houses and capitalists in Italy, with a view to the immediate commencement of the busi ness of the Association. 9. The seat of Administration will be in London. 10. In the event of no allotment of shares being made, the deposit will be returned in full. Sh uld a less number of shares be allotted than is applied for, the deposit will be made availablo toward s the payment on allotment, and the balance (if any) returned to the applicant. Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be obtained at the temporary offices of the Company, from the solicitors, or the brokers. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

The Eastern Exchange Bank (Li T mited), is formed to supply a want which has been long felt, and its value will be imm diate y recognised. Althbugh Liverpool enjoys an immense export and import trade, and is the port through which the valuable manufac tures f Lancashire and Yorkslyre p a ss, it h.B not a single Bank connected w,th the Mediterranean, the East Indies, China, or Australia. The exports of' British and Irish produce and manufactures to the above countries for the year 1863 amounted to about forty millions, and by far the greater portion was shipped from Liverpool, whilst the produce received in return into Liverpool was of ava ue 01 upwards of sixty millions, making total of one hundred milbons sterling. Whilst London has upwards of fifty Banks, with branches In different countries, established for the purpose of affording every facility in Exchange transactions, there is no Bank of this description, with is head-quarters in Liverpool, con nected with the East. The nrofitable nature of Exchange business is well known, and the practice which has become so general of attaching Bills of Lading to Bills of Exchange renders this the safest description of Banking business. Some evidence of the safety and profitable character of the business is afforded by the present values of the undermen tioned Banks, whose chief sources of profits are in connection with Exchange operations, Paid up Present Agra and United Service Bank Chartered Mercantile Bank of Londponer, xs Sh o are.

The Directors of the Eastern Exchange Bank will make arrangements for London business, constituting a first-class London Banking Agency on mutually advantageous terms. The business of the Bank will hiefiy consist in negotiating mercantile bills of exchange, granting drafts, in negotiating and collecting bills payable at places -where the Bank has Branches or Agencies. It will issue circular notes and let ters of credit, will undertake the purchase and sale of secu rities, the receipt of dividends, and effect remittances between the several places, inc:uding London, at which its Agencies and Branches will be established.

There was a large influx of metropolitan and provincial visitors on Monday, and in the evening the Subscription room was well attende I, but the betting on the Cup was limited. Lord Zetland was the only animal supported with spirit, he being backed at 13 to 1 for £250, whilst The Tippler was entrusted with a " pony" at 40 to 1 by his noble owner. In other respects the quotations received from Tattersall's underwent no change. Tuesday morning was showery till eight o'clock, and the atmosphere appeared threatening until noon, when the sun shone forth brilliantly, and a pleasant breeze blowing made the afternoon's sport very enjoyable. The feature of the morning's betting was the retrogression of Accident, who was disliked by the " horse-watchers" almost to a man. Continued offers of 7 to 1 failing to find customers, an advance of a point over these odds was ventured, upon which Accident had friends, and was firm at Bto 1. Muezzin was not in such good odour, but his stable companion, the Hersey filly, was supported at 11 to 2, Little Stag at 100 to 8, and Canary from 100 to 30 down to 20 to 1. This latter price was taken and offered each about Oldminster and Bacchus. The first race was fixed for 2.15, a ridiculously late hour, and which consequently lett us little or no time to make any ou_theracinE,our parcel having to be despatched so early. Four came to the post ror the , G-rosvezur Stalte r • Tippler being made favourite at 7 to 4, and the Marquis of Hastings's horse won in a canter. Immediately after the race several of the bookmakers who had in themorning laid long prices against Tippler were so anxious to "get out" that prices ranging from 25 to Ito2o to 1 were taken. The Chesterfield Stakes was a rare turn-up for the fielders, as Capt. Gray's Windham—never once mentioned in the bet ting—bowled over the favourites in hollow style. Four only came to the post for the Mostyn Stakes, which was won easily by Nothing More. The remainder of the running we are unable to comment upon for the reason given above.

After one " break away" Tippler, Despair, and Stanton came on two lengths in front of Veterinarian for a couple of hundred yards, when Tippler took a clear lead, followed by Stanton, Despair, and Veterinarian, at short intervals, until they arrived three-quarters of a mile from home, when Veterinarian became second and Despair last. A quarter of a mile from home Despair took second place, but could never reach Tippler, who had made all the running after the first 200 yards, and won easily by a length; three parts of a length separated the second and third, and two lengths divided the third and fourth.

PARIS SPRING MEETING. The running yesterday was favoured with glorious weather, and the company was more numerous than ever. The Imperial stand was occupied by the Empress, Prince Napoleon, the Princess Clotilda, and the Princess Mathilde. The field within the cords and the road between the bridges . of St. Cloud and Suresnes were crowded with vehicles, in cluding a number of handsome equipages, the Duke de Morny's splendid scarlet livery being conspicuous among the number. The Poule d'Essai, which, as throwing some light on the probable result of the great events of the year, thus ranking as the Two Thousand Guineas at Newmarket, was the chief event of the day. The Duke de Morny's Bayard, and Count de Lagrange's Fille de l'Air, who bad just arrived from England , divided favour pretty equality but both were very cleverly disposed of by Baron N. de Rothschild's Baronello. a remarkably handsome brown col t, . who appeared yesterday in public for the first time. Mr Carter, the trainer of the winner, appeared highly gra tifie d e°t at this result, and was warmly congratulated i en closure. The other events were the are d'lena, a condi tion of which race is that the horses are to be ridden by French jockeys. This is fortunately the only event o f t h e kind. After one false start the lot go! . away in detach ments, and then Pholoe, who was making the running, jumped the cords and disappeared somewhat in the direction of Paris. The w inner was M.

The second year of the sixth Biennial came next, in which Pergola, the winner on the previous occasion, was not able to repeat her victory, the increased distance being apparently too much. The winner was Guillaume-le-Taeiturne, a much stronger horse, who ran third last year, The day's business was brought to a close by a handicap, won by the top weight, Count de Lagrange's Jamiooton, a 4-yr-old, who was able to give 271 b to several horses of his own age. The Prix d'lena of 2,000 f, for horses 3-yrs-old and upwards, to be ridden by French jockeys only. Entry 100 f; weight Betting-6 to 4 agst Mlle. Mignon, 3to 1 each agst Pholoe and Sarcelle, 6 to 1 agst Feu Gregeois. After a false start, caused by the restiveness of V ulcain, the horses got badly off, Pholoe leading. At the cascade, however, she bolted and leaped the cords. The running was then made by Mlle. Mignon and Beranger ; but at the stands Feu Gregeois went forward, passed Mile. Mignon, and won by a short length. Courlis finished a bad third. The Prix de Bagatelle of 2,000 f, for 3-yr-olds and upwards ; entry 50f ; weight• for age; winners of certain events to be excluded.

A couple of lengths behind were Bois- Rouissel, with Count de Lagrange's two, Baronello and Genereux ; Golgia, who had got badly off, being last of all. At the plantation Leuctres took first place, but on coming down the hill File de l'Air went past her horses and joined Bayard, the two on arriving at the corner being in front. For the moment the race appeared likely to end in a match between-those two, for on nearing the stands Baronello was seen coming up outside, and Fille de l'Air here showing signs of distress Baron Rothschild's horse took her place along side of Bayard, and getting in front a short distance from the post landed a winner by half a length; Fille de l'Air third, passing two lengths behind Bayard, with Bois-Rous sel fourth, and Glorieux fifth.

By the Autho! of " St. Olave's."—A new novel, by the author of " St. Olave's," will be warmly welcomed by all the readers of that clever story. " Janita's Cross" is a still more charm ing work. It is characterised by fully as much power, patbos, and truth to nature as " St. Olave's ;" and the chief personages of the tale are even more remarkable for the rare excellence with which their individual characters are developed. Their changing fortunes will be followed to the close with undiminished interest. Janita, herself, the fascinating heroine; the strong•minded old maid, Miss Hepzibath Ruthven ; the manly, energetic Gavin Rivers, and, his treacherous, worldly sister, Noelline ; the faithful, honest-hearted Roy, and his coquettish sweetheart, Bessie Ashton, are portraits that will long live in the reader's memory. THE CONFEDERATE STATES.—The following is an extract from a letter by the wife of a General in the Con federate Service to her friend in Europe—" There are many little things in which our daily life is changed—many luxu ries cut off from the table which we have forgotten to miss. Our mode of procuring necessaries is very different and far more complicated. The condition of our currency has brought about many curious results—for instance, I have just procured leather for our negro shoes by exchanging tallow for it, of which we had a quantity from some fine beeves fattened and killed upon the place. I am now bargaining with a factory up the country to ex change pork and lard with them for blocks of yarn to weave negro's clothes—and not only negro clothing I have woven, I am now dyeing thread to weave homespun for myself and daughters. lam ravelling up or having ravelled all the old scraps of fine worsteds and dark silks to spin thread for gloves for the General and self, which gloves I am to knit. These home-knit gloves and these homespun dresses will look much neater and nicer than you would suppos e. MY daughters and I, being in want of under garments, sent a quantity of lard to the Macon factory, and reoilio d in re turn fine unbleached calico—a pound of lard Pali ng for a yard of cloth. They will not sell their cloth for money. id far outst e p th e This unbleached calico my daughters and self are now mak ingr up for ourselves. You see some for esi g ht is necessar y to one so alr ea d y , b u t I provide for the necessaries of life. I f I were to describe all the cutting and altering of old th in g s to make th em new which now perpetually goes on , limits of a letter—perhaps I Mira elegant Preen trifles I used to give at that tj to my rel a ti ons i n S avanna h, thought this sketch would sm ug° you, and g i ve you some idea of our Confederate ways a nd means of li v i ng and doing. At Christmas I sent and instead of the season baeo n, I butter, bestowed es f o llowei—several b us h e l s o f mea l, p eas , lard, d eggs, sausages, soup (h om e-made), and silks jewels would at we laugh have been. these To changes all of these inwe our a rope, string, and a coarse b asket I all which articles I am. t assure d were mos t warml y welcomed, and more acceptable thanw are so t ways of l if e , and keep our regrets for graver things. The pboWgraP hs of sour children I was happy to see. You would have smiled to have heard my daughters divining the present fashion from the style of dross in the likenesses. you must know that amid all the woes of the Southern Confederacy, her women still feel their utter ignorance of the fashions whenever they have a new dress to make up or an old one to renovate. I imagine that when our inter course with the rest of mankind is revived we shall present a singular aspect; but what we shall have lost in external apperance I trust we shall have gained in sublimer virtues and more important policies." THE ASSAULT ON Da. ROWE.—On the case of -------- Jame 3 J. Brico and James Scott, who have teveral times been remanded on the charge of having violently as saulted Dr.W, F. Rowe, of P e mbroke -place, Liverpool, be ing called on at the Police court yesterday, Mr. Cobb, who appeared for the prisoners, said as there would be a formal remand, he prczumed there was no occasion to have his clients brought up. Mr Raffles—lf they wish to be brought up they can. Mr. Cobb—No, sir , they would rather not. Mr. Raffies—Ob, very well. Mr. Stephens, from the office of Mr. Alfred S. Samuells, then put in the following certi ficate :_,‘ 76, Pembroke-place, May 2, 1864. We hereby certify that Mr. Rowe is not yet able to attend the court. (Signed) THOM&S PENNINGTON, J. H. BARNES." Mr. Cobb said, in the absence of the learned counsel, Mr. Deighton, he had again to apply to the magistrate to admit the prisoners to bail. Mr. Raffles intimated that he refused the application. The prisoners were then further remanded for seven days, when we understand the case will be fully `Avettigated.—Datity rot, Second Edition, Now ready, 3 vols , crown Spa., £1 lls.
